Top Instagrammers for learning to love yourself

I would be lying if I didn’t say that days go by where I don’t obsess over the way I look. And by this, I don’t mean the good things.

I mean the horrifying fact I am not a size 6, and the whole population obviously looks at me lower in the society rankings for this. The way I have to wriggle and squeeze into my denim skirts and jeans, that the top I bought only a few months ago doesn’t fit me anymore.

These thoughts mount into a huge heap in my head, ready to combust into roaring flames when I allow them to do so. Queue tears.

But there are also days where I look in the mirror and know that what I am seeing is only an exterior which holds no correlation with what I’m capable of. The fact I am dressed, fresh-faced and ready to start the day is the only thing that matters.

Learning to love how you look is not easy, but everyone has perfections if you allow yourself to see them. And this starts with surrounding yourself with the right people. In this modern world, this means the people you stalk, follow and obsess over on social media. Here are some people I think are a worth an insta follow for this…

Ashley Graham

Ashley Graham, ASHLEY F***ING GRAHAM. If I could only ever recommend one person for you to follow on social media, it would be this spectacle of a woman. It’s refreshing when an Instagram post of hers comes onto my feed. The confidence she has, and rightly so, to her appearance and lifestyle is like drinking an ice-cold glass of water.

Gabi Greggs

Gabi Gregg’s wardrobe alone is what dreams are made of, but how she wears these clothes is what makes her so fabulous. Blood red oranges, fuchsia pinks and multi-coloured florals are what brings her figure and personality to life.

Bo Stanley

With her beautiful posts that come along with even more beautiful comments, fill your feed with seeds of positivity that hopefully will flower in your head. She lets her followers know the body she has is to transport her through her dreams, and not to look the way that is deemed as ‘pretty’.

Kelvin Davis

Kelvin Davis, THE Kelvin Davis (who I think I am slightly in love with) Instagram is stunning. Most, if not all, of his posts are filled with an infectious smile and this kind of positivity is what we need.
